Free jazz from Soviet Russia. Dig it etc.

The Master Musicians Of Jajouka's Brian Jones Presents the Pipes of Pan at Jajouka owns.
Meant for the village's most important religious festival, Aid el Kbir. The fest's ritual of dressing a young boy as Bou Jeloud, the Goat God in the skin of a freshly slaughtered goat, involved the child's running to spread panic thru the village as musicians played with abandon.
dope
Yoko Ono's Fly owns and so Does Yoko Ono/Plastic Ono Band. I think its better than John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band.

The Pop Group's Y owns
John Foxx-era Ultravox owns
Crass (all of it) owns
Pre-90s The Cramps own...i don't know a lot of their shit before that. They're rockabilly influenced so its very well the case they came out as racists or something. anyway whatever.
Gorilla Biscuits' Start Today owns
Nilsson Schmilsson owns
Iannis Xenakis' Pleiades owns.
I cannot stress this enough: Sonny Rollins' Saxophone Colossus owns.

It is, paws down ( ;3 but no srsly), my fave jazz album of all time. If you have a hard time with jazz I completely recommend it as a gateway into the genre. Its "easy" while also hinting at free jazz to come
I also recommend Miles Davis' A Kind of Blue, Cannonball Adderly's Mercy Mercy Mercy (Live [but not actually live]) and the Getz/Gilberto album as good jazz gateways.
from there hit up Miles Davis' Bitches Brew, Albert Ayler, John Coltrane and Charles Mingus.

Oh yeah anything but Dizzie Gillespie is outstanding imo. Another good starting point.
Herbie Hancock's The New Standard owns.

There's a lot better H.H. albums to recommend but its one I just discovered now and I'm liking it. Its a little gimmicky and smooth and I've never been a big John Scofield fan but its fun. Ok maybe it doesn't own but worth a listen
the soundtrack to Down By Law by @lurie_john owns.

i feel like tagging the artist i should add something meaningful here but i just discovered it and don't got too much to say. anyway later
Melt-Banana's Scratch or Stitch owns.
New Kingdom's Paradise Don't Come Cheap owns
Sonic Youth's Confusion is Sex owns...uh actually their whole discography I guess. I would just end up posting every single album otherwise.
